Button Tufted .. Looks way cooler..
I have sewing pins holding mine up till I get around to dealing with it.. they are spaced around and actually looks like this.. and I'm feeling I really like the look..

I'm planning on being at the chick filet at 7:45, so lets say everyone get there between 7:45 and 7:55am.
crossfire is now a legal resident of Maryland, got my directions to the shows ready, COM banner in the car. About to go home to clean the car. Tent and chairs ready just need to put them in the car. gonna be a good weekend.
took the car to have the maryland safety inspection performed. the guy hands me the keys and says "nice car, i didnt know it had that much power" i looked at him and said "yeah its a monster" got in the car, they put 5.6miles on it. i know they have to drive it, but come on. 5 miles? seems like a little bit much just to see if it turns and the brakes work.
Visions of Ferris Buhlers Day off............................ with the Ferrari.
I went and looked at the red roadster today. Not bad ..........actually pretty good. However, it has the valve cover leaks which would need to be repaired and while the ragtop looks good, the window had been repaired and not to my liking (at least I'll use that as a significant negotiation play on price). It also has the original battery. A little refurbishing here and there and it would be a nice car. New Michellin tires, interior in good shape, lights had a little hazing but easy enough, exhaust tips need some serious polishing..........and a few Doctor color chips should make her look damn good. I'm not going to act on this unless they fix the roof to my likely (or I can get it replaced under the Chrysler recall) or unless they bring the price down about 1500 to 2000 below where they are now. We'll see......... and the longer this goes, the more likely it is I'll go a different direction. I really should get something more practical...............

it seems like alot of work for a crossfire roadster. sounds like for the time and money you would put in this roadster, you could get a good 60's or 70's convertable cruiser. just depnds on what you are after. there was some guy selling a red roadster that he put the SRT guts into. it was for sale when i was looking at my SRT. i think he wanted 20k for it. not sure if you're trying for a collection of coupe, roadster and SRT or not.

I'd love to have all three (roadster, SRT6) as well as my coupe but a roadster is on my first pick.......and I've even considered an SRT6 roadster............but haven't found the sweet spot on that yet.
Keep us updated on your search for the roadster.
Dave, I took the picture of the Natty Boh guy sitting in your car and put it as the profile picture on the facebook page. I thought it was cool. I'll change it back to the group picture in a few days. For those of you who dont have FB just do a google search of Crossfires of Maryland facebook, and you can see it.

Nice job this weekend COM. we represented ourselves quite well in the two big shows this weekend. We good really good feedback from the Ghost Ryderz club about our show. People said we did really well, and wanted to make sure we will be having a show next year. We got our name out in the car club community so we have done well.

Hi everybody, I just joined and have been itching to go to a car meet. I'm from Ellicott City so I will meet you guys at Wawa. I assume it's okay for other cars to come if my friend wants to come along? Thanks!
